Dreaming of Photographing a Grave - dream meaning with inherited lore
Photographing a grave may be connected to a wish to view family memories or the past more objectively.
You photograph the grave and the surrounding scenery with a phone or camera. The pictures may not come out well, or you may spend a long time looking at the grave on the screen.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a scene of taking a picture of a gravesite has been seen as a way of carrying on the memory of ancestors and family. There is no broad traditional interpretation of the photograph itself, though, so it feels more natural to consider the emotions in the dream alongside your recent family experiences. (In folk dream interpretations, a gravesite may represent family roots and memories, while a photograph can be understood as an act of preserving and confirming something.)
Through the mind: You may want to preserve the image of your family, or be trying to step back and sort through the past. Dreams like this can also come during a time when you’re thinking again about conversations with your parents or relatives.
